Third PlanetFounder & Artistic Director
May. 2020Athens, Attiki, GreeceThird Planet was founded in 2020 by choreographer Chloe Aligianni. Aim of the company is to promote cross disciplinary artistic expression and creation, with a collaborative attitude and a focus on the human condition. Core material of all works is the movement of the human body. The company seeks to partner with, on one hand, institutions active in research and science, and on the other, with international artists and cultural organisations in order to create and present artistic projects of interdisciplinary nature.
Along with production, second pillar of the companyโs work are educational activities relating to dance and the creative process, in order to educate, entertain and facilitate workshops for the general public, dancers, artists and marginalised/vulnerable populations.
Within its first year of existence, Third Planet has secured funding & support from the Hellenic Ministry of Culture & Sports, Flux Laboratory Athens, private associations and institutions for two new productions: 'The Space Cadet'- dance production (21'-22') and ' Before Now After '(21'-22') - performance-documentary, on the centenary of the Asia Minor Catastrophe and the arrival of refugees in Leros island.
We seek collaborations with artistic groups and organisations, that promote the Arts and support innovation within the contemporary dance ecosystem.
